Thank you very much! Yes, I am glad I asked for both obits.
I think Thomas J. KEMP was the son of William Clark KEMP and Martha (?) who were residing
in Hudson Twp., LaPorte Co. in 1850:
CENSUS 1850, Indiana, LaPorte Co., Hudson Twp, writ p. 425/print p. 213, Dwell 33, Fam 33
-
William C. Kemp, 31, Farmer, $400 real estate, NY
Martha, 21, OH
Thomas J., 3, OH
John, 1, IN
I did not know about Miami Co., OH, so maybe I will be able to find William C. and
Martha's marriage now. However, William C. and Martha certainly moved around a lot.
Found them in Daviess Co., MO in 1860; Howard Co., IN in 1870 and Licking Co., OH in 1880.
William Clark Kemp died in Licking Co., OH in 1883. Have not found Martha's death
date or place yet.
I am primarily interested in:
Charles A. Kemp, d. Nov 23, 1912; Washington Twp.; Age 59y; Male, White
and
Vicaria A. Kemp, d. Apr 28, 1928; Knox, Age 73y, Female, White
that I found in Ancestry.com's Indiana Deaths, 1882-1920 database.
I have been working on Charles A. KEMP (Thomas J's brother) and his wife Victoria A.
(nee BURNSIDES). Found Victoria with her son, Arthur, in Starke Co. in 1920:
CENSUS 1920 Indiana, Starke Co., Washington Twp., E.D. 280, Sheet 4A, Dwell # 76, Fam # 77
-
Kemp, Arthur, Head, Rents, 41, Single, can read & write, IN IN OH, Farmer -
General farm, Own Account;
Kemp, Victoria, Mother, 64, Widowed, can read & write, OH VA OH.
I am sure Victoria and Vicaria are the same person.
Is there any way to get the details on Charles and Vicaria's death records in Starke
Co.?
